Leonardo's 'Paragone'

The National Gallery

Leonardo spent time on an argument that's never really ended. Painting versus sculpture: which says more, does more, reaches further. The National Gallery's tour wraps itself around this comparison.

It's for people who enjoy thinking like this. Not looking for a winner, but wanting to understand the wrestling match. You're invited to see paintings and sculptures in relation to each other, rather than in isolation.

The pairing changes how both forms read. What they seem capable of shifts in unexpected ways. It's not about settling the debate. It's about looking harder, seeing differently.
